Abstract:

The present study examines the effect of lime stabilisation on the mechanical properties of laterite soil. Compaction tests were performed in order to obtain optimum moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry density (MDD) for untreated and lime treated laterite soil. A series of Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests were carried out on the specimen containing different percentages of lime. In preparing test specimens, laterite soil was initially compacted at their respective OMC and MDD conditions and allowed to cure for 0, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days before being tested.

Abstract:

Expansive soil is a problematic material for construction due to its high potential for volume change, which can cause damage to road infrastructure. This study aims to investigate the effect of glass fiber and rubber on the properties of expansive soil and its suitability as subgrade reinforcement in road applications. The maximum dry density (MDD), optimum moisture content (OMC), and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) were evaluated for varying percentages of glass fiber and rubber in the soil. The results showed that the addition of glass fiber and rubber had a positive effect on the soil prope

Abstract:

Optimizing the density of waste materials in landfills by proper compaction prolongs the facility life due to the efficient use of landfill airspace. Cement kiln dust (CKD) is a waste by-product produced in huge amounts which exceeds the used quantities in the cement recycling industry and beneficial CKD applications. The vast amount of CKD is almost landfilled in its loose state in Egypt which causes a big loss in landfill airspace due to the low density of CKD. The hydraulic binder effect and dusty behavior of reactive CKD complicates its compaction process. Accordingly, this research was pe

In the current work, a systematic approach is exercised to monitor amended soil reliability for a housing development program to holistically understand the targeted material mixture and the building input derived, focusing on the three governing parameters: (i) optimum moisture content (OMC), (ii) maximum dry density (MDD), and (iii) unconfined compressive strength (UCS). It is in essence the selection of machine learning algorithms that could optimally show the true relation of these factors in the best possible way.

Considering that the Proctor test does not produce any vibrations during compaction, this paper compares the Proctor test and the vibrating hammer test.

The study investigates the compaction characteristics of a river sand (Beas, Sutlej, and Ghaggar rivers) and fly ash mix in different proportions and evaluates four empirical equations for estimating hydraulic conductivity. Experiments show that an increase in the fly ash content results in a decrease in the maximum dry density (MDD) and an increase in the corresponding optimum moisture content (OMC) of sand–fly ash samples.
